Render Cleaning in Southville
Soft-wash render cleaning and biocide treatment that removes algae without damaging the finish.
We carry out render cleaning across Southville and the surrounding Bristol area throughout the year.
Across Bristol, dense Victorian terraces, Georgian stone in the older centre and postwar suburban estates dominates, and cement render trapping damp in solid-wall Victorian terraces is what we are called out to most often.
With a mild, wet south-western climate, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. Much of the older stock is solid-wall bath and pennant stone, where lime rather than cement is the correct specification.
When render cleaning is the right call. Choose soft-wash cleaning to restore a discoloured render without the substrate damage that pressure washing causes on thin-coat systems.

FAQs
Render Cleaning in Southville
Will you need scaffolding?
For anything above single storey, yes — it is safer and produces a better finish than working off ladders or towers. Scaffold is included and itemised in the quote.
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
How long does render cleaning last?
Typically two to four years before noticeable regrowth, depending on shading, aspect and nearby vegetation. Annual maintenance treatments extend that considerably.
